My roommate is a resident in SL as well, and he has a very frustrating (if interesting) problem. He demonstrated this for me last night, on the very computer I am on now and on which I also log in and use SL. He was on the ground standing there. Began walking down the sidewalk. Suddenly, he took off in flight! Arms and legs flailing, he went higher and higher until he double click teleported back down to the ground. He then teleported up to the building platform he uses.
We noticed that, as he was standing there, he was hovering a little above the platform. Then, two steps, and off he went again! A double click teleport was needed to get him back to the platform.
I use this same computer for SL, and I've never ever had this happen to me. He wondered if it was the new mesh shoes he was wearing. He took them off, tried a few steps, and up and away he went again!
Whatever is causing this is triggering the "falling" animation because each time his arms and legs start flailing around.
Has anybody ever had an issue like this before? Any suggestions on a resolution?
What gets me is that this is the same computer I use, the exact settings I use (we use the latest Firestorm), and MY avatar never does this.
